If you think that merely formatting a drive is enough to actually delete data, you may be in for a big surprise. There are plenty of free tools that can be used by anyone and that can unformat the drive and reconstruct the data. That's why when you give your co-worker or friend a file or a program on a disk (floppy, CD/DVD-RW, ZIP, Jaz, or any other type of disk), or give him access to your hard disk, you may actually give him access to the information that the disk used to contain. Backup copies of your financial records or business plans, your private files and e-mail messages, and all your other sensitive documents can easily fall into the wrong hands. East-Tec FormatSecure 2005, in addition to formatting a drive, securely wipes the data in order to eliminate all sensitive information beyond recovery. The product goes beyond U.S. Department of Defense security standards and provides protection against all methods and equipment of data recovery. East-Tec FormatSecure 2005 features a very intuitive wizard interface and can securely destroy all data on any floppy, CD/DVD-RW, ZIP or hard drive directly from Windows Explorer. The latest version comes with support for CD-RW and DVD-RW drives, a more intuitive and easier to use wizard interface, new wipe methods, new command-line parameters, U.S. Department of Defense style wipe reports, and a disk viewer.
